Extract

The purpose of this article is threefold. First to suggest other approaches to the ‘Glass rod problem’ (Gazette note 65.6, March 1981). Second, to show the unexpected connection between that and the article ‘Triangle of triangles’ by H. B. Griffiths on page 10 of the same issue and with the article on ‘Random triangles’ by T. Easingwood in the December 1981 edition. And third, to explore further problems which arise from a consideration of the above.
